*IshavasyaUpanishad* Isha ki vaani - Ham Sabki Kahani

In previous posts of IshaUpanishad there came the

(1) fullness /wholeness and Renunciation
(2) importance of 'action' - 'karmayoga'
(3) not to veil the 'atman' and seeking the self is the motto of human-life.
(4) about 'brahman'.

As the 5th verse too is in continuation of the 4th verse, brahman here it describes about the 'atman' - it is neither 'near' nor 'far' it is inside and outside of this pot- the vessel- the body.
Like the air in and out of a vessel, a pot. Pot moves but the space never moves. That is d atman. Immovable, absolute, accomodated within as well as accomodates everything.

** When the conciousness blossoms to its highest possibility - the vessel gets more volume - the space gets increased. That is belongingness. To accomodate everyone in thy heart. Now one can ask the difference between the outer interaction. The pattern of behaviour. Depends. Here comes the question of one's nature. To be natural means just 'being yourself'. To be natural fr example one can rebuke other if needed - at the same time smiling within, holds love in the heart fr the same person. No way if yu hav that belongingness - yu just cannot be rude by heart to Anyone !! Where is the place to hold hatred then in one's heart once it had blossomed into love ?? Fight too becomes an expression of love. Are yu able to hate yourself ? No way !! With the wisdom one sees one in everyone and in everything...

** Everything n everyone belongs to me. That 'i' has become the 'I'. That 'Oneness' has such richness ....fr what then the attachment would be ?? Attachment is there when we expect something or someone shall become mine. Fear comes feeling insecured - we tend to have assurance again we dont hav faith upon the assurance. In this moment if the essence of the first verse is there. Faith upon one's faith - insecurity disappears. In love one is complete - in faith one is secured. Here comes the 'Oneness' there is no two. Why that seer would withdraw himself frm anything ?  the big- i never withdraws itself frm anything or frm anyone.

** Feeling the true nature of atma is blossoming into it. Its is unstained pure n white. It is in me and in you and in everyone. Words, behavioral pattern, outer nature of expression - atma is beyond everything. Time when conciousness blossoms only that atma is visible behind everything. It is like a diamond is there in a case, the box may be made up of velvate, of glass or silver or gold or may be wooden, but when we know there is a diamond in the box - who cares how the box is ?? Here comes the eternal seer harmonizing diversity. The box is so irrelevant now, so is the names and the forms. That state itself could be called as turia. Time also has no effect upon thy. He only is self-sufficient. He only can allot the respective duties to the creators of the world. That conciousness only can see the possibilities in everything. If world exists - it is He who is the creator ahead of all creators, unbounded.

** Action and Meditation. Truth is beyond both. It is neither in action nor in meditaion alone. Performing duties or withdrawing oneself frm duties n meditate upon is not the path to reach. Whether idolizing the absolute or  doting on the relative ,is not correct.
Both d ways if taken alone -could push us towards darkness. He who knows performs both yet is free frm both. Truth is not either 'avidya' or 'vidya' . Unmanifested and manifested should be worshipped together n not apart. 

On what exclusively to sit meditate ?? Or why to engage oneself in the karma the action alone ?? Further ahead of these two is one's true nature. Atma-Prakriti. The expression of the ultimate blissful inexpressible joy in atma-ramana. Ever-dancing ,ever-joyful,ever-singing, ever-laughing,ever-shining, ever-celebrating like hundreds-thousands rays of the sun with ever-radiating-brilliance....

♡ So do we the seekers of truth pray to uncover our that own cosmic-self, to the visible God.... that we may perceive the most spendrous nature.. my vision is blurred with the outer visible Golden rays , i cannot see your that soft beautiful light of truth which is nowhere except within me. When yu make me able to to see - then only i shall be able to see the whole world is the reflection of that beautiful light ♡

♥ and to the God to whom after this life the vessel made of panchbhootas shall be vanished. Before that let me uncover my self o ' all knower 'agni'. Purify myself by taking all impurities, the poornahuti may be my ego which resists to melt n be ONE ♥

With gratitude to the universal guru-tattva - as a whole upon whom the veda and this Isoponishad was revealed.  _/\_
We sometimes become that Kalidasa - who in ignorance cut that branch where we sit . The whole element in myself as an atom of that could be visible surrendering ego as the ahuti _/\_ 
All is in me , is in you. All what i do - is Yours ♡♥

Ishavasya Upanishad (4)


अनेजदेकं मनसो जवीयो नैनद्देवा आप्नुवन्पूर्वमर्षत् ।तद्धावतोऽन्यानत्येति तिष्ठत्तस्मिन्नपो मातरिश्वा दधाति ॥४॥

[That non—dual Atman, though never stirring, is swifter than the mind. The senses cannot reach It, for It moves ever in front. Though standing still, It overtakes others who are running. Because of Atman, Vayu, the World Soul apportions the activities of all.] 

(The one self never moves,yet is too swift for the mind which moves more than the speed of air, even more speedy than the light.
The senses cannot reach it,yet lt is ever beyond their grasp.remaining still, it outstrips all activity,yet in it rests the breath of all that moves.it moves, yet moves not. We are the vessel - the pot - and the pot moves in the illusion that the conciousness is moving with it . How the space which is in and out of the pot could be moved !!

Aadi Sankaracarya says Brahman is 'Satyam-Gnanam-Anantham'
"Satyam Gyanamanantam Brahma"

(1) Satyam : that which does not change the nature that is ascertained to be its own is 'satya' ..So, the word, ‘satyam’ distinguishes Brahman from mutable things. 
(2) The word, ‘jnana’ means consciousness.it itself negates the idea of the agent of knowing.If It is the agent of knowing, It becomes changeful and so cannot be 'satya'.
(3) That indeed is 'Anantha' (infinite) which is not limited by anything. ’The Infinite is that where one does not know anything else’.
If It has such distinctive attributes as becoming the agent of knowing, It cannot logically be pure existence. 

Everything is 'Concequent occurrence' in a cosmical setup.This system, which is physio-socio-cosmological, can be understood only on the acceptance of a living principle pervading all things, a life that is indwelling the parts, which look like physical entities. We human do hav the highest amount or unit of prana among all the organism and do hav the possibility to increase the life energy upto its double. When we feel joy,even his joy of the feeling that one is alive does not come from any part of the physiological system. This is an instance of the presence of an unknown content operating beneath and behind visible particulars, which are otherwise physical in their nature. Joy is , in one-conciousness , we call it Brahman ♡ )

***************************

Bramh ko humlog janneki seema me bandh nahi sakte. Hamari ye sharir, ye mann, bhavnayen, buddhi brahm ko bayan nahi kar sakta. Drig-drishya viveke, panchkosha viveka, har shastra us anantha satya ke bareme hai jo gnan ki shrot hai per gyan nahi. Isilie shankaracharya brahma ke bareme tin sabdh diye jo judkar suddh-bodhse unka abhasmatra paya ja sakta hai. ''Satya-gyana evam ananta" jo satya hai wohi gnan hain or wohi anant.

Yadi gyani hi 'woh' hote - to gyan ki prakriya ki paridhi me aate per woh us daireme nahi aate. Or ananta bhi wohi jinme dusra koi dusra kuch nahi janta. Finite ki koibhi mandand se infinity ka parimaap kaise ho sakta hai !! Or Jo srist hi nahi hue - anadi hai - unko nast bhi nahi kia ja sakta. To unka seemakal bhi nahi. Unhe kaise kaal *samay* ke daireme rakhenge ?

Jaise kalash ko idhar udhar kar sakte hain, per usme or uske bahrme jo khaali jagah hai woh to chalkebhi nahi chalta. To ye illusion matra hai ke main kalsa ko uske andar ki space samet chalfir raha hai. Woisehi ye bhram hi hai ke hamare sharir chetne ko khudme lekr chetnasamet chal rahe hain. Sirf sharir chalti hai - chetna sthir hai.

Ye anand ki aadhar hamare manastattvik adhar nahi. Hum jeevet hai ye chotisi anand ka ehsaas bhi chetna me hai. Manastattvik gyan anand nahi. Anand kuch aaisa hai jo hum samaj nahi sakte. Anand us ek-chetna, suddh vivek me se aati hai. Hamare buddhi se paare ki chetna se. Us chaitanya se khudko jodtehi hum bhi us chaitanya ki poornima me poornata me samil ho jaate hain.

Samaj nahi sakte bata nahi sakte buddhi se pakr nahi sakte firbhi Brahman humse alag kahan !!

!! Namo brahmaane !!

Ishavasya Upanishad (3 )

असुर्या नाम ते लोका अन्धेन तमसाऽऽवृताः ।ताँस्ते प्रेत्याभिगच्छन्ति ये के चात्महनो जनाः ॥३॥

*Verily, those worlds of the asuras are enveloped in blind darkness; and there to they all repair after death who are slayers of Atman *

Here in the third stotra states about the unillumined worlds clouded by the blinding darkness of ignorance.
Slayers of atman means ?
Those who have destroyed their self. Who perform works, without having arrived at a knowledge of the true Self. Upanishad clearly indicates they go after death to those worlds of demons.

In our previous posts we were talking about evolution and karma theory and how noone can exists without action. 

Know that Work is a spiritual longing. It originates in the deepest recesses of being, whether it is a happy or unhappy service. The impulsion to act persists due to the finite existence, again, this finite existence is due to our prarabdha karma . When our body moves in a given direction - we call it work,,The mind moves in a given direction - we call it thought, The feelings move in a given direction-we call it desire. 
All these move towards a wholeness of experience, to become one. Towards brahman.

There are hundreds of explanations available but the gist is
We have to blend *avidya* and *vidya* together for the sake of freedom and immortality, says the Upanishad. 

"The bondage to which we are subjected by action, day in and day out, will make us disgusted with everything, and we will be automatically freed from the impulse to act. The world (maya) itself will liberate us from its clutches when we have paid our debts to it."

Paying our debts and performing action we may transcend our karmic cycle.  It is ignorance of not performing our duties and searching for God sitting somewhere in the sky. And it is utter ignorance to get stuck in our action n worldly desire alone.

Ishavasya Upanishad (2)


कुर्वन्नेवेह कर्माणि जिजीविषेच्छतँ समाः ।एवं त्वयि नान्यथेतोऽस्ति न कर्म लिप्यते नरे ॥२॥

[ If a man wishes to live a hundred years on this earth, he should live performing action. Continuing to act in the world,one may aspire to be one hundred.
Thus, and only thus, can a man be free from the binding influence of action. ]

****************************
So, we get that the sloka speaks about action (karmakanda). Questions may come in mind As it is said that the knower of brahman got liberated through GYANAMARGA (Gnanakaand) Then what is karmamarga and how this is important ? What is jeevanmukti ? Who are jeevanmuktas ? While one knows *Brahma satya jagad mithya * aspiring to be the knower of Brahm -how it is important fr a seeker to act ?? And most importantly "who acts as a divine- instrument an how do they perform according to divine's plan ??

Life is identified with action, while God is identified with omnipresence. Here we shall see what is connection between omnipresence and action....

Swami krishnananda has beautifully given the explanation : "the impulsion to act arises not from any psychological centre. It is not 'my mind' or 'your mind' that is just thinking in terms of a project or an action. Its basis is somewhere else. The foundation of the very impulsion to act, is not in the instrument of action. It transcends the instrument. "

As an example, if we hold an axe in our hand it doesnot cut a tree. It is the mind who gets an impulse to cut the tree cut hence the body as the agent of action via mind is cutting the tree by the axe.The mind and the body of the human individual, for instance, may be said to be the instruments of action. But instruments themselves cannot be causes. The causes are interior, precedent to the agent of action as well as the instrument, and when the small mind find its connection to the bigger mind who is one with the higher conciousness - then the action is auto impulsive and is according to the bigger mind.

BhagavadGita also says that no one can exist being inactive . But its meaning is not that easy to understand. Why is it difficult to be inactive? There comes the 'karma' theory and the theory of 'evolution' .
The shastras n the words delivered by the ancient rishis there are so much connected. We may find the essence of one into another. This is the beauty of our Sanatana-Gnana. They all hav spoken in one tune. From the ONE big-mind.

The impulsion to act arises through the instrumentality of a human individuality, which again has a remote aim in front of it . There is an incessant transformation taking place in the constitution of every little being, even the inanimate matter is included. "The constitution of the present form of the individuality is inadequate and would not suffice for the fulfilment of the purpose of evolution."

Performing action in the outer world and seeking what is hidden deep inside.
Gyana gives vairagya - and then whatever action is performed is free frm desire, free frm attachment : if we are not attached even to the fruit - then who shall be there to reap ?? The term 'jeevanmukta' comes this very way.

The first and second verse are deeply connected. 

Life cannot be without action and attainment if moksha (liberation) cannot be only with action (karmayoga) . Without gyanamarga no-one can get there. 

*****************************

Fr reference : here
The qualification to be acquired for studying Jnana kanda is described. This is called “sadhana chatushtaya ”
Like the 'choupaya' it too requires four foundation (feet) to stand. Lets see what are they.

(1)ATMA-ANATMA VIVEKA : discrimination between the eternal and the ephemeral.  

(2) VAIRAGYA :
Non-attachment to enjoyment of objects both here and hereafter. 


(3) SIX FOLD DISCIPLINE : Under this comes  - 


(i)Sama -control of or mastery over the mind.
(ii) Dama - control of the external sense organs  
(iii) Uparati - strict adherence to one’s duties and obligations, called dharma.
(iv)Titiksha -  endurance of heat and cold, pleasure and pain, tolerance of all discomfort .
(v) faith in sastra and guru (teacher) (sraddha)
(vi) focus (citta-aikaagrataa) and calmness of mind (citta naischalyam ) called 

(4)MUMUKSHUTVAM :  


Intense yearning for liberation for liberation (mumukshutvam) .

And this is very important so read this carefully :

**The means for acquiring this 'sampatti' consists of 'karma yoga' and 'upasana' . Though the chances of benefiting from the pursuit of jnana kanda are greater, if one takes to that pursuit after acquiring sadhana catushtaya sampatti, one who has not yet acquired it is not precluded from pursuit of jnana kanda for lack of it. One can practice the elements of sadahana catushtaya samaptti and the pursuit of jnana kanda simultaneously**

In Upanishad it is clearly mentioned that - 

**Karma Is Not Means Of Liberation. Knowledge Of Identity With Brahman Is The Only Means Of liberation.**

Few Upanishad statements that knowledge, not karma, is the means of liberation are as follows : 

(1) Kaivalya Upanishad
“It is through renunciation that a few seekers have attained immortality – not through rituals, not through progeny, not through wealth".(na karmana na prajayaa na dhanena tyaganaike amrutatvamaanasuh).

(2) Mundaka Upanishad  "Indeed those who consider karma to be a means for moksha are fools. They enter old age and death again and again.”

"These ritualists do not know the glory of moksha due to their attachment. Consequently these wretched ones fall down when the Punya is exhausted.” 

(3) Brhadaranyaka Upanishad 
“He, who in this world, without knowing this Immutable, offers oblations in the fire, performs sacrifices and undergoes austerities even for many thousand years, finds all such acts but perishable; he, O Gargi, who departs from this world without knowing this Immutable, is miserable. But he, O Gargi, who departs from this world after knowing this Immutable, is a knower of Brahman”.

*** “Whoever in like manner knows It as, ‘I am Brahman’, he becomes all this. Even the gods cannot prevail against him, for he becomes their self. Whereas he who worships another god thinking, ‘He is one, and I am another does not know. He is like an animal to the gods.”  *****

(4) Kenopanishad  :
“Through knowledge is attained immortality” (vidyayaa vindate amrutam”). 

(5) Brhadaranyaka Upanishad “Brahman has to be recognised by the mind alone. (“manasaa eva anudrashtavyah”.)

(6) Kathopanishad 
“This is to be attained by the mind alone.“ 

(7) Taittiriya Upanishad II.2.1 – “The knower of Brahman attains Brahman” (“Brahmavid apnoti param”)  


(8) Kathopanishad :
“Superior to the Unmanifested (Maya) is the Infinite who is......without worldly attributes, knowing Whom a man becomes freed and attains immortality.”
(“....Yam jnaatva mucyate jantuh...”). 

(9) Brhadaranyaka Upanishad
“....that very Atma I regard as Brahman. Knowing Brahman, I am immortal.” (“Tam eva manya aatmanam vidwaan brahma amrutah amrutam.)

There are hundreds of stotras in sruti (ved) which describes the single path fr the attainment of 'truth'. We are not going to the detail here fr it would be very lengthy. But 


The gist is : 

(A) Service gives merit which pushes one towards the thirst to know. 

(B)Moksha cannot be attained by Karma or knowledge combined with Karma. 'Jnana' knowledge alone can confer Moksha. Karma purifies the mind and helps the aspirant to attain knowledge. 

(C)Teacher shows the way to prepare ones mind fr the ultimate truth.

(D) It is the mind alone by which one has to know the absolute.  




Aage hindi me isper kuch or charcha karenge :)

Ishavasya Upanishad (1)

The 1st verse
---------------

ॐ ईशा वास्यमिदँ सर्वं यत्किञ्च जगत्यां जगत् । 
तेन त्यक्तेन भुञ्जीथा मा गृधः कस्यस्विद्धनम् ॥१॥

At the heart of this phenomenal world,within all its changing forms,dwells the unchanging lord.

so, go beyond the changing,and, enjoying the inner,cease to take for yourself what to others are riches, protect the self by renunciation.

****************************
It is the Consciousness, when perceived, appears as the world.
AGAIN it is Consciousness which perceives Itself.

When there is no doer/perceiver - is that nameless, formless, infinite..... **whatever-that-is** . and is **Isha** . Everything in what we call as ‘world’ is made up of and permeated by  #Consciousness. 
This is what is meant ---> "Ishavasyam idam sarvam"

**************************** 
Then here is the second line of the 1st stotra.
What is 'Sanyasa' (renunciation)

The first type is the *relative renunciation* where a karma yogi refrains oneself from wrong action.

The second type is *Vividisha sanyas*. It is for the ones who are committed to knowledge, who renounce 'artha' and 'kama' for the sake of 'moksha' liberation.

Then comes *Isvidvat sannyas* , which is the absolute renunciation.  where ones ego (ahamkar),
'doership' and 'enjoyership' both is resolved into the truth of thyself. this is what ‘tyaktena’ means....
 
Resolution of ahankar is 'bhuj'. enjoyment of fullness, happiness, freedom which is already there.Aadi Shankara says 'may yu protect, 'bhunjita', and not ‘may you enjoy’.
 
The ‘absolute renunciation’ is protection from sansaar ,which is the cause of unhappiness.
Understanding the truth of oneself and the universe being one n non dual - is the protection from sorrow. 

*****************************
Isha Upanishad ke pehla stotra Gyanyog ki sarvoccha patth hai. Mahatma gandhi kahen the " saare sashtron yadi jalkar rakh ho jaaye to ye do stotra me unke saar reh jaega.... "

Sab kuch woh ek hain. Unke acchadan me. Jaise hawa ka odni . Jaise khaali jaghe se bana hua ghar.

Osho ki ek baat jo mujhe bahot pasand hai - ghar space se bannta hai...diwar se nahi. Diwar to kamra se kamra ko alag karneke lie !! Per ghar ?? Woh to khaali jageh matra hai jisse hum diwarose dher lie hain. Kitna sunder baat, haina ?? Khaali hote hue bhi poorn.
Anderbhi-bahrbhi...Isa - iswara, brahman. Sarvoccha chetna - chaitanya. One conciousness. Yehi ek suddh-chetna hi ekmatra satya. Samaj se bhi pare ki satya. Advaita-tattva. 

Mithya jagat ka janm bhi isi chetnase aata hai jab hum janneki koshish karte hai. Ye jaise Space ko diwar se gherkar ghar bana lena or diwar hi ghar hai jaan lena !! Jab ye mera ghar tera ghar janna samjna mit jaata hai to diwar bhi nahi rehta.
Sirf shruti (ved) ke gnan se hi ye janneki bhul - ye doership - ye KartaPan ko mita sakte hain. Diwar ki tucchata ki gyan aa sakta hai. Sirf gyan ki tarvaari se hi agyanta ko kat sakte hain....ek rashmi (lightbeam) se andhera katneke jaisa.

Ye jaise matrikrod me sishu ki krida. Ma ke godime aapna hath pyair chala raha hai ,acche aache kapde bhi pehn raha hai, khabhi raha hai , hasbhi raha hai , dekhta bhi hai per karta woh nahi...ma hain. 

Chetna jab us sthar pe laut aati hai to aata hai bliss , aapne aap ho jaati hain samarpan. Sama jabtaq nahi to arpan hogi kahanse ?? Kiska hai ? Kya hai ? Or Kisko denge ?

Ye ek stotra us viswas ki utsya hai - gomukh se ganga ki dhara ke jaisa !!

Namo advaita-tattvaya mukti pradaya...namo Brahmane vyapine nirgunaya !!
* Jo bhi hai * yehi hai....

Sanyas ke jariye khudko protect karo . Atma ko bachao. Kaise ? Sanyas kise kehte hai ? Sirf arth or kaam ko tyag dena ? Humse koi galat karm na ho isse bachna ?? Ye bhi marg hai. Sanyas ko samjneki. Per sanyasi unhe kehte hai jo jante hai woh kaun hai. Jo sama me aa gaye. Main wohi hun ye satya ki anubhav. Ek brahmachari wohi hai. Brahm-sama . Samadhi lagana nahi padta hai. Baithna nahi hota hai. Jidhar bhi drishti jati hai jobhi karte hain- ek me rehte hue . Sansaar ka bhar lenewala. Kahase aaya kabiliyat ? Kartapan nahi rehnese. Yehi sarboccha gyan or jeevan yagna me aham ki ahuti . unme na to kalke lie paschataap rehta hai na anewala kal ke sukh ki aash. Poornata ki uplabdhi aati hi khudko jannese.

Ishavasya Upanishad

♥ ॐ ♥ पूर्णमदः पूर्णमिदं पूर्णात् पूर्णमुदच्यते । 

पूर्णस्य पूर्णमादाय पूर्णमेवावशिष्यते ॥

ॐ शांतिः शांतिः शांतिः ॥

****************************
Om.
That is full ...This is full.
That is the whole....This is the whole...
This fullness/wholeness has been emerged from that fullness/wholeness still wholeness remains...
Again, When this fullness merges in that fullness, all that remains is fullness....

Om. Peace! Peace! Peace!

****************************

♥ Om ♥
!! Han !! hain !! 
!! Sampoorn hain !!
Isavasya ke suruvat hi ye poornata se. Srishti aayi , to Urja ki woh anadi anant shrot se jo paripoorn hain. Hum aayehi us paripoornta se. Aaisi purnata - jise na to sakaratmak kahan ja sakta hai na hi nakaratmak !!
Nakaratmakta ki aabhaas bhi hogi tabhi to kisiko sakaratmak kahenge na !!  Nakaratmakata hain hi kahan ?? !!

Brahmand ke taraf dekho, Srishti ke kan kan yehi poornata vyakt karta hai. Aapne aankhe band karke bhi dekho kitne poorn ho tum. Isi kshan me sampoorn. Bus haiii, jo bhi hai sirf 'haan' hai. Kahin koi 'na' nahi. Uday ke palse lekr aasth ke paltaq suraj bhi pal pal muskurata hua haan haan hi keh rahe ho jaise...
Sagar ki haar lehrki utna bhi jitni khusise - mil janabhi utni khusise bharpur. Kahan hai kami ? Kounsi koneme ?? Dhoonte reh jaoge per kahin koi kami dhoond paenge nahi....Ped me lage phool or fal, udta hua ya baitha hua panchiyaan, patjhaar me raste per gira hua patta taq ko dekho - kitne poorn hai woh saare !!  

Iswar ki poornata sabdhome vyakt karna ya hamare seemeet gyan ki daireme samajna kathin kaam hai. Poornata ki kalpana hum apoornata ki agyanta se pehchanneki koshish matra karte rehte hain. Jaise kalpana me ek golak ya golakar tej ya roshni aata hai - ek sphere , jo sampoorn hai. Ye hai hamare kalpana ki uddan. Itnataq. Kyunke dharna de di gayi or hum kisike die gaye dharna ke aadharpe adhara ko dharneki chesta kar rahe hote hain.

*Poornata se jo bhi aaya woh bhi poorn hai - or woh ya woh sab aneke baadbhi poornata poorn hi reh jaata hai * 

Yebhi badi achraj wali baat haina ? Are samunder se bhi ek lotabhar paani utha le aate hai to total paani se ek lotaa pani kam ho jayega ki nahi !! Ye kaise aajeeb baat fir ?? 

Per kabhi sochkar dekhe ho ? Aap aaye kahase ? Ma ki garv se na ? Woh ma, unke sharir ek dusra sharir ka janm di - ek sampoorn sharir ko firbhi unke sharir ghatkar chhota ho gaya kya ?? Woh bhi poorn hi rahi. To aab us Poornata ki kalpana karneki prayas karo jahanse itne bishal srishti janm lia ho- woh kaisi poornata hogi ?? !! Ek ma ka aachal ki chaav unki presence agar itni badi hoti hain to us vishal ke acchadan  kitne bade honge or kis kadr hote honge ?? 

Fir puch sakte ho - yadi poorn hi hain, to hum me ye kami ka ehsaas kaise or kyun ? Yahataq ki koi gyani, realized mahatma bhi dusre ko sukhi karneki maqsadse, mission se kyun daudte rehte hain ?? Jab sabkuch paripoorn hi hai to kounsi khhamiya ko poori karneke lie ?? Yahataq ki vignan ki atomic structure parmanu me bhi to (+) or (-) ve hoti hai !! Fir vignan or poornata kya alag alag pehlu hai ??

Translation in English
-------------------------
Invocation :

*** Om. That is full; this is full. This fullness has been projected from that fullness. When this fullness merges in that fullness, all that remains is fullness. Om. Peace! Peace! Peace!  ***

(1) All this—whatever exists in this changing universe—should be covered by the Lord. Protect the Self by renunciation. Lust not after any man's wealth.

(2) If a man wishes to live a hundred years on this earth, he should live performing action. For you, who cherish such a desire and regard yourself as a man, there is no other way by which you can keep work from clinging to you. 

(3) Verily, those worlds of the asuras are enveloped in blind darkness; and thereto they all repair after death who are slayers of Atman. 

(4) That non—dual Atman, though never stirring, is swifter than the mind. The senses cannot reach It, for It moves ever in front. Though standing still, It overtakes others who are running. Because of Atman, Vayu, the World Soul apportions the activities of all. 

(5) It moves and moves not; It is far and likewise near. It is inside all this and It is outside all this. 

(6) The wise man beholds all beings in the Self and the Self in all beings; for that reason he does not hate anyone. 

(7) To the seer, all things have verily become the Self: what delusion, what sorrow, can there be for him who beholds that oneness? 

(8) It is He who pervades all—He who is bright and bodiless, without scar or sinews, pure and by evil unpierced; who is the Seer, omniscient, transcendent and uncreated. He has duly allotted to the eternal World—Creators their respective duties. 

(9) Into a blind darkness they enter who are devoted to ignorance (rituals); but into a greater darkness they enter who engage in knowledge of a deity alone. 

(10) One thing, they say, is obtained from knowledge; another, they say, from ignorance. Thus we have heard from the wise who have taught us this. 

(11) He who is aware that both knowledge and ignorance should be pursued together, overcomes death through ignorance and obtains immortality through knowledge. 

(12) Into a blind darkness they enter who worship only the unmanifested prakriti; but into a greater darkness they enter who worship the manifested Hiranyagarbha.

(13) One thing, they say, is obtained from the worship of the manifested; another, they say, from the worship of the unmanifested. Thus we have heard from the wise who taught us this.

(14) He who knows that both the unmanifested prakriti and the manifested Hiranyagarbha should be worshipped together, overcomes death by the worship of Hiranyagarbha and obtains immortality through devotion to prakriti.

(15) The door of the Truth is covered by a golden disc. Open it, O Nourisher! Remove it so that I who have been worshipping the Truth may behold It.

(16) O Nourisher, lone Traveller of the sky! Controller! O Sun, Offspring of Prajapati! Gather Your rays; withdraw Your light. I would see, through Your grace, that form of Yours which is the fairest. I am indeed He, that Purusha, who dwells there.

(17) Now may my breath return to the all—pervading, immortal Prana! May this body be burnt to ashes! Om. O mind, remember, remember all that I have done.

(18) O Fire, lead us by the good path for the enjoyment of the fruit of our action. You know, O god, all our deeds. Destroy our sin of deceit. We offer, by words, our salutations to you. 

*** Om. That is full; this is full. This fullness has been projected from that fullness. When this fullness merges in that fullness, all that remains is fullness. Om.  Peace! Peace! Peace! ***

[ End of Isa Upanishad ]

Another translation :

From wholeness emerges wholeness.wholeness coming from wholeness,wholeness still remains.At the heart of this phenomenal world,within all its changing forms,the unchanging lord only dwells only .Go beyond the changing, enjoy the inner,cease to take for yourself what to others are riches. Continuing to act in the world,one may aspire to be one hundred.Only thus, a man can be freefrom the binding influence of action.

Unillumined indeed are they, whose worlds are clouded by the blinding darkness of ignorance.Into this death (ignorance) sink all those who slay the 'self'.

'Self' never moves,yet is too swift for the mind.the senses cannot reach it,yet lt is ever beyond their grasp.Rremaining still, it outstrips all activity,yet in it rests the breath of all that moves.

It moves, yet it doesnot. It is far, yet it is near.it is within all this,and yet without all this.he who sees everything as nothing but the 'self' , and he sees the self in everything, such a seer withdraws from nothing.
For the enlightened, all that existsis nothing but the self,so how could any suffering or delusion continue for those who know this oneness?

He who pervades all, is radiant,unbounded and untainted,invulnerable and pure.he is the knower, the one mind,omnipresent and self-sufficient. He only has harmonized diversity throughout eternal time.

Into a blinding darkness go they who worship action alone.Even into a greater darkness go they, who worship meditation.
It is other than meditation,it is other than action. This we have heard from the enlightened ones.

'Meditation and Action' he, who knows these two together,through action leaves death behind and through meditation gains immortality.

Into a blinding darkness go they who idolize the absolute,into an even greater darkness go they who dote on the relative.
For it is other than the relative,it is other than the absolute.this we have heard from the enlightened ones.

'Absolute and Relative', he, who knows these two together, through the relative leaves death behind and through the absolute gains immortality.

The threshold of reality is veiled by golden light.reveal it, o lord, for my dharma is to know the truth.
O Sun, o lord of light, the knowing one, the golden guardian,the giver of life to all, spread apart thy rays, gather up thy brilliance, that i may perceive your finest and most splendrous nature,that cosmic spirit which lies at your heart. For, i, myself am that !

Let my breath merge with the cosmic breath, may my body be as dust, remember, o mind, remember what has been done.remember, o mind, remember what has been done.

O fire, agni, show us the right path, lead us to eternal freedom, it is you who knowest all. May we not be diverted from our goal, for with all devotion we submit ourselves to you, O lord !!

AUM !! This is the whole.from wholeness emerges wholeness,wholeness coming from wholeness,wholeness still remains.

OM SHANTI SHANTI SHANTIH !!

!! HARIH OM !!
